Shower Enclosures

Shower doors are normally made of glass to help with passage of light and contribute to the openness of an otherwise small bathing space. Glass shower doors are available in different finishes. Almost all of frameless shower doors are custom made to fit the space. The best time to measure for a shower door installation is after all the tile has been set, as custom cut glass enclosures are tempered and cannot be cut, grinded, or reshaped in any way. However, planning your project and considering all the options before the start of work can potentially help save you time and money.

There are a number of considerations that need to be made in choosing a glass shower enclosure. First, you must choose the overall design of the glass shower door. Available options include swing or bypass doors, sliding doors, pivot doors, pivot doors with headers, steam fit shower doors, and more. You should choose the design before the start of the project.

Next, you must choose the thickness of the glass. Thinner glass needs to be framed in aluminum excursion to help with the stability of the glass, whereas heavy glass shower doors do not need to be framed and can be used completely frameless.

Third, you must choose the type of glass to be used in the shower doors. Options include clear glass, acid etched glass, frosted glass, rain glass, storm glass, tinted glass, glacier glass, bubbles glass, patterned glass, ultra clear, bronze glass, gray glass, and more.

Finally, you must choose the hardware to be used on the glass, including the shower door handle, shower door hinges, clips, towel bars, towel hook, header, and the like. Hardware finishes to consider include chrome, brushed nickel, brass, oil rubbed bronze, satin chrome, gold plated, antique brass, brushed bronze, and many more. Choosing the right finish is essential in ensuring coordination of the shower enclosure with the rest of the bathroom space.
